Decorative Aggregate (1/2″ Minus, Desert)
Applications & Uses
Decorative Aggregate - Desert, 1/2" Minus
Decorative Aggregate in a 1/2" minus size with a Desert attribute is a versatile landscaping material composed of crushed stone or gravel, specifically selected for its warm, natural desert tones. The "1/2" minus" designation means the aggregate includes pieces up to 1/2 inch in size, along with smaller particles and fines. This gradation allows for excellent compaction, creating a stable surface that resists shifting and erosion.
The Desert color palette makes this aggregate ideal for projects seeking a natural, southwestern aesthetic. Its compactable nature is perfect for pathways, patios, garden beds, and xeriscaping, as well as commercial landscapes where low maintenance and visual appeal are priorities. The fine particles help lock the material in place, reducing migration and providing a smoother finish underfoot. However, the presence of fines means it may not drain as quickly as larger, washed aggregates, making it less suitable for high-drainage applications. Overall, this product offers a balance of beauty, stability, and practicality for a wide range of decorative and functional uses.
